| BLOOD HINA
No. 4 in the Mas Arai Mystery Series
In this fourth installment of Naomi Hirahara's highly acclaimed Mas Arai mystery series, Mas' best friend Haruo is getting married and Mas has grudgingly agreed to serve as best man. But then an ancient Japanese doll display of Haruo's fiancee goes missing, and the wedding is called off with fingers pointed at Haruo. To clear his friend's name, Mas must first uncover a world of heartbreaking memories, deception, and murder in mystery which spans the flower market in Los Angeles to Imperial Valley near the Mexican border.
"Naomi Hirahara has done it again! It's wonderful to see reluctant detective Mas Arai back in action."
—Lisa See, New York Times bestselling author of Snow Flower and the Secret Fan
"Mas Arai is a true original and one of my favorite characters in crime fiction. I love spending time in his world and I'm thrilled that he's back—and at the top of his grumpy game."
—S.J. Rozan, Edgar-winning author of The Shanghai Moon
"Blood Hina is even better than Hirahara's Edgar Award-winning Snakeskin Shamisen."
—Denise Hamilton, author of the Eve Diamond series
"Edgar-winner Hirahara once again provides a sensitive insider's view of the Japanese-American subculture in her fourth Mas Arai mystery."
